Warriors Cause Yet More Hair Pulling - And Just About Head Bashing

Labels: , ,

It wasn't easy to watch, but the Warriors managed to pick up their first win in three weeks - beating the West Tigers in Sydney.

With seven minutes to go, the Warriors led 28-16. But Taniela Tuiaki managed to score two trys to take the score to 28-26 (with the kick to come) but, fortunately for the Warriors, the usually reliable Brett Hodgson missed the conversion giving the [lucky, oh so damn lucky...] Warriors the win.

With Ruben Wiki playing in his 300th NRL game, it was a great way to celebrate the Kiwi legends career.

At times, the Warriors were brilliant (Lance Hohia's try was something special), but they let the Tigers back into the game with some poor defence.

BUT - it's a win, and we'll take it.

The Warriors have the bye next week, so the win puts us only two points out of the top eight. The bye will also give Steve Price and Brent Tate a good rest, after what will no doubt be an epic Origin decider this Wednesday.

The road to the finals isn't going to be easy for the Warriors, with six of their last nine against top eight sides, and needing to win 7/9. But they only need to look at last year to know that anything is possible...

We want to congratulate Wiki on his 300th game, which many people didn't think he'd get too after he was dropped earlier in the year - well done, Wiki.

Here are the other results from the weekend.

Broncos 12 - 12 Panthers
Roosters 24 - 14 Bulldogs
Titans 22 - 26 Dragons
Sea Eagles 28 - 12 Knights
Cowboys 28 - 29 Rabbitohs
Eels 24 - 22 Storm
Raiders vs Sharks (Monday night)
